John Maybury - Thomas Daughter Cameo Scrapped From Big-screen Biopic


Director JOHN MAYBURY has apologised to Welsh poet DYLAN THOMAS' daughter - after her cameo in upcoming biopic THE EDGE OF LOVE was scrapped.

Aeronwy Thomas, 62, was asked to play a minor role in the big screen story of her poet father's life, which stars British beauties Keira Knightley and Sienna Miller.

However, the film's editors didn't deem the role important enough to make the movie's final cut.

Maybury says, "She was an extra in one of the scenes but unfortunately my editor put her on the cutting room floor. It wasn't me."

The movie is set to premiere at the Edinburgh Film Festival later this month (Jun08).
